The general consensus is small font for A12 cars.

Small font it shall be. What do you guys think the date code should be for the rad?

while 3/4 of the A12 production was "SCHEDULED" on Saturday 4/26/69 - they were built during April, May & June

do you have a fender tag and/or broadcast sheet? the "body-in-white" number from the fender tag can point towards an actual production date timeframe

I have the fender tag, that has 426 for build date I think. Which #s would be body in white?

Check your K member date code that will get you pretty close.

What's the assembly date on your engine , assuming it's original ? Cars with 426 SCHEDULED production date were built well past that date .

All A12 cars have the small font "054" radiator. Bob Schirmer at Glen Ray Radiators can reproduce or restore an original. The dates on the 054 radiators followed a last in first out inventory management in 1969. This means a late build A12 will have a very early radiator date. This is well documented with original radiators.
